TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:

, Be itknown that I, ISRAEL WEINBERG, of the city of Philadelphia, State of Pennsylvania, have invented an improyed- Hook and Eye, for fastening the waistbands of pantaloons or cloaks or coats; and Ido hereby declare A the following to been exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification, in which- Figure 1 represents an ordinary hook.

Figure 2, the eye as invented by me.

Figure 3, the above named hook and eye connected.

The nature of myinvention consists in the construction of the eye so as to look into the hook A, (as shown v at B,-) thencurying inward, as shown at D, and then curving round and hooked at the ends, as shown at E, with sharp hookedipoints. The hooked points, E, are hooked into the waistband'wherever required to loosen or tighten the Waistband, and may be twice passed through for a firmer hold, the end, B, locking into the hook A; the object being to fasten the waistbands of pantaloons, and dispensing with the use of buttons and suspenders, and very convenient for coats or cloak fastenings. z

What I claim as my invention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is- The construction of the eye, having curved forked ends, for the purpose of regulating, tightening, or loosening the waistbands of pantaloons, so as to correspond with the shape of the body, and suit the wearer, as

herein deseribed.
